Hey out there, I recently re-discovered my old stash of minis and cards and for the past few days have enjoyed playing this game again. However I only have the rules for Ground Assault, and I have minis from all over the place. Is there anyone out there who still checks this forum who can help with some questions and join in any discussion that might come up?

Glad to hear it! I just re-discovered this after many years and recently played around 6 games over a weekend. I was wondering do you happen to have rules for the other sets aside from GA? I need some help with some silver icons from CW, they look like a target, any idea what they do? My brothers and I supposed they meant that you could attack from an adjacent zone.

When chosen as an attacker, this unit may battle a defender in an adjacent zone. Resolve this battle normally, except that:
a) the defender may not make a base roll,
b) the attacker may not play a card,
c) if the attack hits, the attacker deals 1 damage for each Artillery Icon on its base instead of its printed damage value.

Most pieces with this ability only have one Artillery Icon, but that card I linked has two, unique in the game in that it can bypass armor (which is my favorite icon).

Personally, I think that it was a little too powerful thanks to the way the game is set up. I remember combining C78 Division Tri-Droid with Battle of Bothawui to hit space units in the Contested Zone (which may or may not have been legal--I didn't do it again. )

I have two of the clone artillery cannons, and have used them in conjunction with Birth of an Empire and Hoth Drop Zone to get plus one to my battles with those units, teeheehee. I think me or one of my brothers has the SPHA-T mini somewhere, we have it's base, but not the actual mini, are you saying that only that mini can ignore the power armor, or that all minis with that symbol ignore the armor, which is also one of my favorite icons as well.

It's like this:

Imagine that our SPHA-T hits an armored unit.
The Armor Power Match Icon reduces damage by one.
SPHA-T has two Artillery Power Match Icons, so it deals two damage minus one damage from the Armor icon.
The total damage is one against the armored unit unless a card affects this.

Ahh, gotcha, we've been playing it wrong then. We had it such that if the cannons hit they deal out the damage listed by their stat. My brother wont be happy to hear that, oh well. I've found some stuff for Star Wars on eBay, among them the Devastator PuP for around 5 with 3.95 shipping. I'm seriously considering it, but there's also Pirate stuff I'm keeping a close eye on as well.

Overall, the game became just a little less fun for me (strikes? what's the fun in that?) until Artillery came along; I had a short term monopoly on that.

I wish the game had a different way to account for rarity--unlike Pirates, rare pieces are usually significantly better than regular pieces. I also wish the movement was different--I saw that Cadet-Captain Mike had a variant more like Pirates that seemed interesting.

I am not familiar with the Cadet-Captain but I've heard his name bounced around so often I should probably look into the Pojo and BBG sites.

Since I'm just getting back into it, I don't have a set favorite number of star units. I did however have some units partitioned off from the rest which I seem to recall was my winning army against my younger brother whom I continually beat. It had the two Separatist battleships from GA, two artillery cannons some republic Pod Walkers and a few Homing Spider Droids. In the more recent games, my other brother and I have used up to around 60 stars worth of stuff, which usually gives us two or three 4 and 5 star units. This brother has a strange proclivity for rolling high with his dice, no matter what game we play, and so I have gravitated toward units with high attack and damage values along with cards that favor my units, i believe I mentioned earlier, but I like to use Birth of an Empire with Hoth Drop Zone and Endor Base Outer Door .

My brother has used Droid Control Array Echo Base Hangar Bay to great effect against me multiple times. As of right now the battle record is something like 7 wins for him, five in a row! and about 2 for me. We've tried three player once so far, and will probably try again when we have time.

I'm finally getting around to reading some of the Cadet-captain's rules for SW. I like them so far, but it's going to take a little while for me to completly grasp everything. Nonetheless, I'm going to give his rules a shot, and see if they improve the games.

What do you have? I'm looking for minis only really. Not too interested in the cards that came with the game.

What do you mean? aren't the cards the stats for the vehicles? I have like some at-at's and tauntauns and clone vehicles as well as a droid tank or two. I can get you a better list tomorrow. Do any of those sound like something you want?

They do sound like things I would want. By cards I mean the combat and objective cards, not the styrene minis. I don't know if I can tak you up on your offer right away however. There are a few things I'm watching on ebay.
